Morse Express Christmas Keys


In Celebration of the Season... 

Morse Express has commissioned its eighth annual Christmas Key. 

Our 2008 Christmas Key is a precision miniature key made by GHD Keys, incorporating traditional Japanese craftsmanship along with GHD's impeccable engineering.

In keeping with GHD's larger keys, the Christmas Key features miniature ball bearings at the trunnion, a machined ceramic insert under the lower contact to absorb vibration, and perfect balance. The contacts are hard-silver and the mechanical parts have a deep polished chrome finish.

The oval base is heavy ebony selected for warmth and grain.  The dogwood knobs for the Christmas Key were made in a Kokeshi doll factory, and the doll shown above is an "artist original" by master dollmaker Akira Suzuki.  Like Suzuki, GHD Key's Toshihiko Ujiie combines modern and traditional techniques to produce a miniature key that will be equally at home in the radio shack, in the field, or decorating a Christmas tree.

The 2008 key measures 2" by 1" at the base and weighs 4-1/4 ounces. Each key has a label with “Christmas 2008” and the key’s unique serial number.   The Christmas key will add something special to straight key operations through the Holiday season and Straight Key Night.

This is a LIMITED EDITION of 150 keys.

The Morse Express 2008 Christmas Key is $89.95 (plus s/h) and is available exclusively from Morse Express.
 

Click on the "Add to Shopping Cart" link below to start the ordering process by opening a shopping cart.  From there you can proceed to "check out" and provide the other ordering information.  Be sure to change the quantity if you want more than one key.  If your browser is accepting "cookies" you can continue shopping and order other items before proceeding to "check out."  

A word about the serial numbers...  if you bought our 2007 Christmas key last year, then the same serial number will be held for you this year, until approximately the middle of November.  The exact date will depend on how quickly we sell out of  "unallocated" numbers, so if the number is important to you please order sooner rather than later.

Thank you very much for your order, and I hope our little Christmas key brings a little extra joy to the holiday season for you!

A Christmas Card from Gary...

Dear Marshall:

I just received my 2008 Christmas Key. I am so pleased as always with this yearly product. The 2008 version is exceptional! I just love it. I can not wait to get this hooked on line and start using it. I can not say enough about how I wait every year for this product to be produced.

To all CW ops you cannot go wrong with any of the Christmas Keys. I am the proud owner of every version since the first production model was introduced. I have used them all. I have also purchased several other LTA's, the military keys from China, and a few others from MorseX. They service their customers great.

I also built a OHR100A/20m a few years back and still enjoy operating that fine transceiver. I have and will endorse it to any Qrp operator as a great addition to their shack.

Thanks again MorseX for making the Holiday and my shack a little brighter.

All the Best...73 W9FNB/GARY
